“…Medium Definition Liposuction aims to create a fit, natural look in select patients who already have a regular exercise routine, tight abdominal skin, muscular hypertrophy, and low body fat. The idea is to create an athletic aesthetic in patients who lack abdominal definition in relation to their whole body [2,5,8].…”

“…The ideal patient should follow a consistent exercise and diet routine. The patient has to have an overall athletic look with a lack of abdominal definition [2,5]. 50 patients underwent Medium Def Lipo during a 2 year period (2016-2018)..…”

“…The abdominal musculature is topographically visualized according to the skin markings guided by the palpation of the linea alba, linea semilunaris, and the tendinous intersections of rectus abdominis muscle. These landmarks are enhanced with localized superficial liposuction to deepen the natural grooves or furrows, creating curves, light, and shadow effects on the skin [5][6][7].…”

Medium Definition Liposuction is an alternative liposuction approach, without the need of external energy device (such as LASER or VASER), that avoids the eventual stigmata of some cases of High Definition liposuction. This approach uncovers the abdominal muscle outlines by enhancing the superficial muscle anatomy and topography, creating an athletic, natural look. The ideal patient should have the Body Fat Index (BFI) of 18% or less with abdominal muscle hypertrophy. 50 patients underwent Medium Definition Liposuction (2016-2018) and were evaluated by the authors according Strasse Aesthetic Outcome Scale 1.

“…(11) In contrast to fat grafting in the face, using this approach to correct soft tissue contour abnormalities in the trunk or for breast reconstruction or augmentation can require transfer of significantly greater volumes. (7–10) And while surgeons understand the advantages of using autogenous fat for breast reconstruction or augmentation, the multiple steps required for fat preparation prior to reinjection can be tedious, requiring several assistants. Thus, while plastic surgeons in general would like to incorporate large volume fat transfer into their practices, clinical adoption hinges on more efficient techniques and improved instrumentation.…”

Background Fat grafting has become increasingly popular for the correction of soft tissue deficits at many sites throughout the body. Long-term outcomes, however, depend on delivery of fat in the least traumatic fashion to optimize viability of the transplanted tissue. In this study, we compare the biologic properties of fat following injection using two methods. Methods Lipoaspiration samples were obtained from five female donors and cellular viability, proliferation, and lipolysis were evaluated following injection using either a modified Coleman technique or an automated, low shear device. Comparisons were made to minimally processed, uninjected fat. Volume retention was also measured over twelve weeks following injection of fat under the scalp of immunodeficient mice using either the modified Coleman technique or the Adipose Tissue Injector. Finally, fat grafts were analyzed histologically. Results Fat viability and cellular proliferation were both significantly greater with the Adipose Tissue Injector relative to injection with the modified Coleman technique. In contrast, significantly less lipolysis was noted using the automated device. In vivo fat volume retention was significantly greater than with the modified Coleman technique at 4, 6, 8, and 12 week time points. This corresponded with significantly greater histological scores for healthy fat and lower scores for injury following injection with the device. Conclusions Biological properties of injected tissues reflect how disruptive and harmful techniques for placement of fat may be, and our in vitro and in vivo data both support the use of the automated, low shear devices compared to the modified Coleman technique.
